I agree with you – it is very practical. I’ve used it to help me in many ways in my small business – I only wish I had read it earlier and saved myself from making many mistakes!

The lessons apply to organizations whether they’re bootstrapping or seeking funding from venture capitalists or angel investors. Kawasaki includes plenty of historical examples and firsthand experience, making this a practical real-world resource that’s more valuable than a simply conceptual textbook.

Good reflection on the money vs. meaning take away.

The MBA experience is good so far. I’d highly recommend it if you have the $$$ to foot the bill or work for a company that will cover the cost. If you’re paying with a student loan, I’d be hard pressed to say that the trade-off is worth it.

The first point “Make your business have true meaning for you” is so true and meaningful

My take away: Make your business have true meaning for you – this will keep you in the game when things get tough…

A lot of people focus on the money and fail miserably and I couldn’t agree more, passion and a conviction of your ideas will take you way far and the money seems to sort itself more often than not.

How is your MBA experience so far?

Thanks for this excellent review, Derek.
